Coming to you almost live is the Christmas story according to Ava.
Several weeks ago, Ava recited her favorite Christmas book while riding on her school bus on her way to see The Madeline Christmas Play. Her teachers enjoyed it so much they asked her to bring in her book and read it to her class.
That morning, I videotaped her reading the book in front of our Christmas tree so that I could share you the excitement with all of you. In the great family video mix-up of 2007, I taped over her reading when I went to her preschool Christmas program.
I cried. Then I called Nate and cried again.
Ava wiped my tears and graciously agreed to read it again for Nate’s family at our Christmas celebration on Friday night. The lighting may be dim and the sweet cousin may be chatty, but Ava still manages to tell us the story of Baby Jesus.
Enjoy!
How wonderful, heart-warming, precious, touching and so very sweet! It brought a tear to my eye… Thanks for sharing…and Merry Christmas to YOU all as well!!
Rachel, you keep making me want to have a baby – cut it out!
Very special and sweet. Thank you for sharing!
A tear-jerker! And, so precious!
What is the name of the book? I NEED IT. Julia LOVES Brown Bear and Panda Bear and reads them all the time.
